Fine dining in Bangkok under 2,000 baht a head, what do you actually go back to?

Every list I open is either the same six Michelin names or a blog from 2019 where half the places have closed. Looking for proper sit down dinners, tasting menu or a la carte, where the bill lands under 2000 per person with a drink. Not street food, and not the hotel restaurants where you walk out 5k lighter. Lunch sets count if it's the same kitchen at night. Curious what people rate that doesn't show up on every list. submitted by /u/rasekrodriguez [link] [comments] The Bangkok Community https://ift.tt/RyY3OCu Bangkok Hotel Deals

Looking for trusted genuine lab grown diamond vendors!

Hey everyone! I’m currently looking to buy a pair of certified lab-grown diamond solitaire studs (IGI/GIA) as well as some colorful gemstone fine jewelry , but I specifically want to buy directly in-store/offline so I can see the stones in person. For anyone who has bought lab diamonds or fine pieces locally in Bangkok: 1. Which physical showrooms or boutiques offer good quality and fair pricing? (I've heard of places around CentralWorld/Siam as well as the Silom/Jewelry Trade Center area, but would love specific vendor recommendations). 2. Are there shops that let you pick loose lab diamonds to set on-site? 3. Any specific places you recommend for vibrant, colorful gemstone pieces with nice settings? Would really appreciate any trusted store recommendations or tips on where to look. Thanks in advance! submitted by /u/kash-ing_around [link] [comments] The Bangkok Community https://ift.tt/BDfWXj5 Bangkok Hotel Deals

Best neighbourhood to live in BKK

Hey everyone, I'm looking for suggestions or recommendations for the best neighborhood or area for me to live in Bangkok this winter. I've been to Bangkok before as a tourist, but this time I'm considering actually living there for 3 months. We were living in the Middle East before this, and due to the war, we have left the region. I'm looking for a warm place to stay this winter time. Originally from Canada, we definitely like the nicer things in life. Budget is not really a concern. We want convenience, safety, and greenery if possible. We want to live in a house just so we feel like it's open. We have one child and a nanny. If you guys have any recommendations, bonus points if it's close to golf courses as well. Thank you! submitted by /u/bogeygolfer4life [link] [comments] The Bangkok Community https://ift.tt/9f0ut7o Bangkok Hotel Deals

Bangkok bars with Live Bands

Best Bangkok clubs for EDM/Techno with a real dance floor and no table culture?

I’m looking for the best club in Bangkok for EDM, techno, or tech house — preferably with no standing tables, or only very few. I want a place where people are actually on the dance floor, dancing and enjoying the atmosphere instead of just standing around their tables. submitted by /u/Altruistic_Bid1709 [link] [comments] The Bangkok Community https://ift.tt/zDs26BV Bangkok Hotel Deals

Found a kitten hit by a car. Where should I bring her?

I found a kitten that was hit by a car in Thonglor. I brought her into a 24 hour vet and they said her abdominal wall is ruptured and she will likely need surgery. Separately, I'm talking to a cat rescue that said she'll take her after the surgery. The surgery is very expensive though and I would have to be the one that pays. She's in stable enough condition to be moved to another vet they said. I want her to get taken care of but I'm not going to be in Bangkok for that long and our own pet back home is going through chemo which is very expensive. If I have to I'll pay for the surgery but I'm wondering if there are any options. submitted by /u/Commercial-Shake-858 [link] [comments] The Bangkok Community https://ift.tt/mlOe03d Bangkok Hotel Deals

Barber for European hair and beard shaping in Bangkok?

I’m from Europe and looking for a barber in Bangkok who is comfortable with European hair and proper beard work, not just a quick standard fade. I need a haircut plus beard trimming/shaping. English would help, but I care more about someone who takes their time and gets it right. I’m happy to travel around central Bangkok. Any barbers or specific people you’d recommend? submitted by /u/UkrMalt [link] [comments] The Bangkok Community https://ift.tt/hzpJ1Py Bangkok Hotel Deals

Purse for Thailand

Hello! I’m going to Thailand here soon and am struggling with what kind of bag to use. I definetly want something that closes but that’s also small and subtle for dinner but can hold a lot for when I’m out during the day! I don’t want to carry around a full size backpack all day but I definetly want to have room to put my purchases in and I always have a full purse because I’m an overpacker so I always have anything I think I might need. I was looking at the Uniqlo crescent bag but don’t think it’s big enough but I like the style. Thank you for any advice :) submitted by /u/bmckenz07 [link] [comments] The Bangkok Community https://ift.tt/qd5R2t9 Bangkok Hotel Deals

BTS/MRT VS GRAB?

I’m planning a trip to Thailand and I’ll be staying at the Hilton Sukhumvit Bangkok. I have a list of different places that I want to go to, so I usually look up the commute on Google maps to get an idea as to how far they are relative to my hotel. The one thing that I noticed is that the Grab beats the BTS almost every time as far as Google is concerned. It could be something that may be 5 or 10 miles away and it could be a 20 minute drive but an hour BTS ride. So my question is, is Google getting the BTS commute accurate? Or is it not good at picking up traffic with automobiles? For anyone who lives in Thailand and rides the BTS often, to get a good idea I would like to ask what the true commute would be for you to get from Emporium mall to Yaowarat Road? Because Google says 1hr+ submitted by /u/Fucking247 [link] [comments] The Bangkok Community https://ift.tt/1raFg5L Bangkok Hotel Deals

Day school vs. Boarding school around Bangkok: How do you guys decide? Looking for recommendations and advice!

I just wanted to get some thoughts and recommendations from other parents here. We're currently looking at international schools around Bangkok and I’m stressing a bit over whether we should go for a boarding school or keep them at a day school. My main goal is just wanting my child to grow up independent, able to take care of themselves, and pick up good life skills. But as a parent, it’s such a tough call to let them go live away from home Thanks in advance ! submitted by /u/SouthernPayment377 [link] [comments] The Bangkok Community https://ift.tt/EijVwWZ Bangkok Hotel Deals

For those who moved to Bangkok from overseas, how was your experience finding a condo to rent?

I am curious because I know finding a place in Bangkok can be quite different from renting in other countries. Was it easy to figure out which places were actually worth viewing, or did you end up going through lots of listings and agents before finding the right one? And for anyone who rented before arriving in Bangkok, how did you handle viewing the place? Did you feel comfortable making a decision without seeing it yourself? I would especially love to hear about anything that surprised you?, either positively or negatively, after you moved in.

Cockroach on my Head

Was laying in bed when awake at night when I suddenly felt something in my hair. „Heard about the guy who fell off a skyscraper? On his way down past each floor, he kept saying to reassure himself: So far so good... so far so good... so far so good. How you fall doesn't matter. It's how you land!“ submitted by /u/ZombieDapper3123 [link] [comments] The Bangkok Community https://ift.tt/l46WpMw Bangkok Hotel Deals

Hostels with coworking spaces

I am planning on visiting Thailand by the end of the year for at least 2 months. But i will be working remotely at the same time with European office hours . I don’t want to get a hotel or Airbnb because i still want to meet people and socialize a little and i fear i will get bored. So the best combo i could think of is some good hostels ( no party hostels ) that are calm but still fun and have some type of working space where you could meet like minded professional people. Any suggestions for these type of hostels ? submitted by /u/Significant_Egg9963 [link] [comments] The Bangkok Community https://ift.tt/oEgYOfU Bangkok Hotel Deals

Best Area to Stay as First Time Visitor

Hello, I'm planning a trip to Bangkok in December. I was looking at booking the Hotel Clover Asoke, but was starting to second guess the area. It will be my first time to Bangkok and we (me and my husband) plan to explore on our own as well as do a few guided tours. We are never out late and do not party. Is the Hotel Clover Asoke in an easy-to-navigate or first-timer friendly area? Our hotel budget is roughly $100-200/night. submitted by /u/Fluffy_Fondant1975 [link] [comments] The Bangkok Community https://ift.tt/4qsO5d6 Bangkok Hotel Deals

Route 66 is still racist

Hi, just wanted to add my story to the list of stories if you Google/search reddit for route 66. I am a bit of a progressive/techno aficionado, American, brown skin color - two nights in a row was initially denied entry from route 66 being informed only people with advance reservations are allowed in. I was dressed appropriately for a night out, I know how to act. I went next door to Onyx the first night and met a couple Brits, teamed up for the night out, they said they had already been to route 66, no advance res, no table purchase , were confused about why I had been denied but said likely because I was brown, they wanted to go back and, saying I was with them, I was allowed entry. The next night, a Sunday, I went to a techno show and it was dead, wanting club style nightlight for my last night in town, a lot of the spots dead I ended up walking up to route 66 and was told the same thing. I asked why I was told that same thing the night before but was eventually allowed entry and I ...

Arriving in Bangkok next week, how bad is the airport queue, if at all?

Hello everyone, Any advice would be absolutely lovely. I have no idea how busy the airport actually is and keep getting very mixed reports from one extreme to the other.

help: Got an offer to relocate from India to Bangkok, need inputs insights

Interviews went well for the staff engineer role; will share in detail the rounds sometime They are offering 210k THB monthly with one month’s joining bonus Feels like they are lowballing me considering staff level -> 220-230, and 2 months bonus is a norm according to other posts I went through From my research, once they offer, they don’t really budge a lot, so how do I word it if they don’t increase? For someone moving with a wife as a dependent, is it enough for a comfortable life? Currently not working, was earning more, but have an offer in hand for 40LPA. The market seems tough. Will be saving less, according to my calculations, since it's costlier, surprisingly even more than BLR, so I am really in two minds. Plus, the weather seems like a turn-off Bengaluru has spoilt me. Since desk job, is it an issue when not working? Any inputs or suggestions on lifestyle cost that people don’t usually find on the internet will be appreciated. edit: To clarify, I know this ...

I need flowers for my girlfriend

So i'm in a long distance relationships with a thai girl, who lives in Bangkok. I just recently visited her for the first time, and i'm ashamed to admit it, but i never got her any flowers. That's why i'm wondering if there's any flower shops/vending machines at Suvarnabhumi airport, so that i can have them ready next time the moment she sees me. I feel so bad, and i just want her to see that i do care next time i visit her. Any other recommendations of shops in in the city itself are also welcome. submitted by /u/MrMelon2020 [link] [comments] The Bangkok Community https://ift.tt/8GgxtW4 Bangkok Hotel Deals

Uncapped internet speed?

Hi! I’m going to study in Bangkok for 6 months and can’t figure out what sim card/ package to go for, do any of you guys have a recommendation on a high speed mobile internet provider with 10-50gb full speed/month?

Injectable fillers

Hi, I’m traveling to Bangkok next month and would like to do a couple skin treatments and a little injectable filler. I have been researching clinics but there are so many to choose from and I’m not sure how to narrow it down for injectable filler as there are not many before and after photos to go off of. The filler needs to be placed with expertise and with someone who has a good aesthetic eye and wondering if anyone knows or has experience with some clinics they can recommend?
